Toy of the day: Transformers busts

I'm not really one for toys (anymore) or busts/figurines. But damn don't these look good, especially Movie Starscream!

It'd make the perfect mantlepiece statue to accompany the Transformers DVD...both the animated movie and the live action one!

From Wizard Universe:

TOY OF THE DAY: TRANSFORMERS BUSTSIn the next few months, the makers at Diamond Select will be offering a line of exceptional busts, including two that are exclusive to mail-order retailer Action Figure Xpress.

The Transformers’ resurgence on the pop cultural landscape won’t be subsiding any time soon. There’s the DVD of this summer’s blockbuster, a planned sequel, a new cartoon and more toys and statues than you can shake a Go-Bot at! In the next few months, the makers at Diamond Select will be offering a line of exceptional busts, including two that are exclusive to mail-order retailer Action Figure Xpress. In November, 600 lucky fans will be able to own a 6-inch Reformation Megatron bust—no, not Megatron during the Protestant Reformation of the 1500s, Megatron when Unicron reformatted him into Galvatron! Then in March of next year, Coronation Starscream makes his debut, capturing that brief period of time between getting crowned and getting obliterated. Visit shopafx.com for more info!

Surrender? SURRENDER?!
